Chapter 1349 The Adulterous Affair

Emmeline knew her mother had depression, and her emotions swung wildly, with good days filled with gentle kindness and bad days clouded by thunderstorms. Her mother often suffered from insomnia, sometimes for over a dozen days in a row.

This not only took a toll on her health but also filled Emmeline and her father with immense concern. They tried both alternative medicine and modern medicine, but neither seemed to work. The doctor warned that if it continued to progress, it could lead to mental health issues.

Emmeline's father was about to retire, and he said that after retiring, he would take her mother out more, hoping it might help. He was a loving husband, spoiling his daughters as well, a man who was not only at good carner but also took care of his family.

He had served in the military at the age of fifteen and was later placed in Altney's largest steel conglomerate after recovery, where her mother was also his colleague. They had been married for over twenty years, dedicated, hardworking, and skilled at managing their household. In an era filled with middle school students everywhere, they had nurtured two daughters who both got into college.

After having breakfast, Emmeline arrived at school early.

On Mondays, they raised the national flag before class.

It was a day full of positive energy, a beautiful beginning.

In the hallway, there was an inexplicable noise.

Who could it be so early, and what are they doing?

Emmeline turned the corner on the ground floor and just made out the soft moans of a woman and looked up when she saw a man and a woman passionately kissing, leaning against the railing of the

staircase.

"Ah!" Emmeline was startled and covered her mouth. The shocking scene was a first for her in real life.

Emmeline stood there, stunned.

The man and the woman quickly separated, both equally bewildered. The woman hurriedly ran upstairs.

It was Joseph Sayer, the head of the administration department, and Ysabel Hemmings, the third-grade homeroom teacher.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The one in a frantic state wasn't Joseph, who stayed behind, but Emmeline.

This is madness! Emmeline thought as she turned and hurried downstairs, her heart still pounding. Emmeline looked at her sneakers. Why did I decide to wear sneakers today?

If so, they could've heard the series of clatters she made when walking.

It felt as though Emmeline had done something wrong, not the couple who were having an affair.

She couldn't go back to the office for now. If Ysabel saw her, she might want to hide in a hole.. Luckily, the first class was with Ysabel. She would take things a step at a time after that.

Emmeline arrived at the school playground, waiting for the flag-raising ceremony.

Checking her wristwatch, she had a good forty minutes to go.

She could see Joseph standing by the railing of the administration building from afar. He must be regretting his actions today. His behavior earlier was a stark departure from his usual strict and solemn

demeanor.

After finishing her own classes, Emmeline went to the administration building.

Seeing her, Joseph's facial expression was somewhat contorted, but he remained seated at his desk without. moving.

"Mr. Sayer, I'm not feeling well. I need a few days off," Emmeline handed him a leave request form.

Joseph looked up at her.

Emmeline smiled and said, "It's alright, don't worry. There's absolutely nothing else going on."

She spoke very clearly, word by word, as if making a solemn promise.

Joseph looked at her, and gradually, his gaze and expression relaxed. He nodded and signed the form.

Outside the school, the sky was the same, yet it seemed exceptionally blue with only a few clouds, and the sunlight was somewhat intense.

Emmeline let out a long sigh. Where should I go?

Unknowingly, she arrived at the bus stop, and a chubby girl with curly hair blocked her way.

After a moment of staring at each other, they both exclaimed simultaneously.

"Sam!"

"Emmeline!"

"It's you!"

She turned out to be one of Emmeline's middle school classmates. The two girls were very affectionate when they met, holding hands and spinning around as if their youthful days from middle school had. suddenly returned.

"What are you doing here?" Sam asked.

"Just taking a stroll, waiting for the bus," Emmeline replied with a smile.

Her original intention was to take any bus that came along and let the "wind" carry her away to lift her spirits.

"It's been so many years, and you haven't changed a bit!" Emmeline said.

"You're not saying I'm still this chubby, are you?" Sam laughed.

"You're still as adorable as ever! And just as fair!" Emmeline laughed.
